Your assumptions are flawed. To say a trading system works doesn't mean it works perfectly and can thus destroy the market. DCBs are the main components of the Turtle trading system and it made the Turtles into millionaires but the markets are still here.

"A crossing B for entry and C crossing D for exit" covers MACs, DCBs and a multitude of more complex strategies. I'm not sure the OP was looking to cast that wide a net. Entirely up to him of course.

The OP stated that he wanted to see how simple methods worked. The only simple method I know besides MA crossovers is Donchian channel breakouts. Do you know any others?

I don't believe you're mistaken. Too many threads started by one-post wonders. wtf

I don't believe it has anything to do with creators of fictional superspies being heavy drinkers of Jim Beam.

I don't believe it's at all coincidental that James Bond, Jason Bourne and Jack Bauer all have the same initials.

Glad you and your kids enjoy it. That guy Wardega is going to be a national hero in Poland before this is over with. Congrats to him for a job very well done.

I was expecting more interest in this thread. This video is up to 16 million youtube views in its first 24 hours. What does it say about ET that there's so little interest in it?

Too good to bury in some joke thread.

Do HFTs pay commissions? If not, that is clearly cheating. If so, it can't be much given their volume of trading and that is also a form of cheating.
